Twiggy. | Sarah Mason
Pet(s): Twiggy
Nickname(s): KittyKitty. We don't really call her Twiggy, ever.
Type/breed/etc.: A domestic shorthair cat with a torbie coloration. (I learned this from looking at the vet's report.) Torbie is a combination of “tortoiseshell”—orange and cream—and “tabby.” Also, torbies, like tortoiseshell cats, are almost always female. (I learned this from the internet.)
Owner(s): Sarah Mason
Where and when did you get your pet? We got her from Richmond SPCA two years ago. They didn't know why she was missing four of her top teeth. She sometimes has a grumpy little mouth that we can't get enough of.
What's your pet's favorite thing to eat? Grass, man.
Does your pet have a neighborhood animal friend they like to play with? TKTKT
What is your pet's favorite thing about living in the East End? We don't let her out except in the backyard, so she has no friends. I suspect she likes it that way though.
What is your pet's favorite thing about living in the East End? She loves to look out the window on Sundays and watch everyone dressed up and going to church.
Got anything else Lookout readers should know about your pet? If you need more Twiggyface, her Instagram is @kittykittyofchurchhill. It's just for fun!
